I couldn't help but wonder how many Democratic oriented Americans were
going so far as to be tempted to think "____________, F***, or screw Thanksgiving" this year, for they may have wondered as to how thankful they could be, now that a certain group of "political turkeys" had reassumed office for ANOTHER 4 years.

4. Am sure some Americans may have less "elaborate" holiday celebrations all
around, just as it was during the time of Bushcrap the first.


By the way I wondered if Americans out of circumstance did have less elaborate celebrations of ALL holidays during the tenure of George Bushcrap the elder and then "bada bing, bada boom, bada bing" in 1992, along came ol' Billy Boy and they then were able to have slightly more elaborate celebrations since they figured now that they had a new President everything would be all right from there on in.

5. Most don't see these holidays as much more than...
time off from work, except me who has to work all Thanksgiving weekend, and time to be with family. Besides, I like turkey. Thanks- Giving has not ever been much more than that for me. However, I was always perplexed how the Indians are celebrated as a peaceful people who sat down with the early settlers to feast. Where upon, we realized we had manifest destiny and slaughtered them all in a moral orgy of blood in our drive westward. Our political turdeydom seems to go back many years.

15. No tengo miedo de Arbusto.
Had to laugh. Once in a Spanish class I mistakenly read aloud miedo as mierda. I said, "No tengo mierda de ella" instead and all of the Hispanics taking the course for an easy "A" laughed at me. I didn't know what I had said. Up til then, I only had heard of "ca ca"
